[Rik]

Update of bug #60806 (project octave):

Follow-up Comment #1:

Try 'help save_header_format_string'.  There is already an internal variable
that can be set by the user to be the header for text files.

This works for me:


curr_hdr = save_header_format_string ();
new_hdr = strcat (...
"# This data-containing file has been generated via the octave 'save'
command.\n",
"# Use the 'load' command to add its contents to a new session.\n",
"#\n",
curr_hdr);
save_header_format_string (new_hdr);
x = pi;
save -text tst.var x
